Mark Wahlberg As Spenser Confidential For Netflix, Trailer Out

By News Helpline – 24th January 2020

Director Peter Berg and actor Mark Wahlberg are reuniting for Netflix’s Spenser Confidential, the official trailer for the same is out! The action comedy reunites the Lone Survivor, Deepwater Horizon, Patriots Day, and Mile 22 team.

Spenser Confidential stars Mark Wahlberg as ex-cop Spenser, who is just getting out of prison. He's ready to leave Boston for good. But first he's dragged into helping his old mentor and boxing coach Henry (Alan Arkin) into helping a promising amateur, Hawk (Winston Duke).

When two of Spenser’s former colleagues are murdered, he recruits Hawk and his ex-girlfriend, Cissy (Iliza Shlesinger), to help him investigate and bring the culprits to justice. (She also gets to compare the crew to Batman, Robin, and Alfred.)

Spenser Confidential also stars Bokeem Woodbine, Marc Maron and Post Malone. The cast seems great, and the action comedy should definitely find an audience on Netflix.

Netflix made a deal with Mark Wahlberg, Peter Berg, and the estate of Robert B. Parker to potentially base a series of films around wisecracking but poetry-spouting boxer-turned-private-eye Spenser.

Spenser Confidential is very loosely based on the novel Wonderland by Ace Atkins, and uses the names of characters created by Robert B. Parker. The film is scheduled to be released on March 6, 2020, by Netflix.
